The dark days are over and with it the time it was not easy to play football as often we would like to. We take a look at the biggest releases of April 2017.

Whereas the first three months of the year brought us a ton of launches such as the Nike Hypervenom Phantom III and various Adidas and Nike collections, April 2017 will be much quieter in terms of releases with only few new boots and kits coming out.

Nike Mercurial Superfly CR7 Chapter 4

Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to wear his new Nike Mercurial Superfly signature boots in the Champions League quarter final against Bayern München.

After Nike launched the new Nike Motion Blur and the Nike Revolution Pack last month, the Swoosh will only bring out one big football collection this month, the new Nike Mercurial Superfly Cristiano Ronaldo Chapter 4 pack. Set to hit stores on April 13 2017, it is very likely that Cristiano Ronaldo will already debut the Cool Grey and Metallic Hematite boots in the first leg of the Champions League quarter final against Bayern Munich on April 12.

Adidas EQT Pack

In mid-April 2017, the Three Stripes will launch an exclusive collection for small-sided football, dubbed the EQT pack. The collection will bring the look of the iconic Equipment collection which debuted in the 1990s to the modern game.

New Balance Liverpool 17-18 Home Kit

Liverpool will already unveil a classy new 125th anniversary crest and the new home shirt in April. The new Liverpool 2017-18 kit will feature a darker shade of red and the special anniversary logo.

However, these are only the three biggest releases of the month. Puma will also launch several new editions for their boot silos, and both Adidas and Nike could also bring out new special editions such as the Adidas Ace PureControl Ultra Boost Kith Edition. It is also possible that other clubs will also unveil next season's kits already.
